So a few days ago I randomly did the big chop. No specific reason. I had more than one reason for wanting to do it but not one in particular that made me come to this conclusion. I was just sick of the hair routine of trying to figure out what I was going to do every week. I was tired of doing my hair. I was bored with my hair and being natural was the one thing I haven't experienced yet so..............I cut it all off. I must say unless you are extremely confident, this is not the thing to do. It definitely shook me for a few days but by day 4, I was extremely in love with it. And I still am. I will say that I think I know my hair on a more personal level now. I have always done my own hair since I was twelve years old but I never knew that my hair was this texture under all those relaxers and weaves. I had no clue what I was in for. My hair does have a nice curl pattern but it is equally as nappy. I put a softener on it originally but my natural hair is very coarse and stubborn so that did me no good. I had to come up with a regimen which I will explain in another blog but that's the only way my hair looks decent. I have to manipulate it while its wet. Meaning, I wet it, comb it all the way through and then I add product that I know will hold it in place. That product is a mixture of things I created myself. Its really working for me. So anyway its been exactly a week today since I did it but I will keep you posted on color, products and whatever other weird experiments and finds that I come up with. Enjoy......................
